Genuinely gutted guys. Loved it, but I think 2 years of a daily 60 mile round trip, in a sdi, on standard seats broke me down.

It’s being replaced this Sunday but not another caddy. If I ever get another one it’ll be a viper green one. Maybe.

My new winter wheels turned up today. I’ve been scouting out a second hand set but these were mega cheap (£250 delivered) so I thought feck it.....take my money!

Fronts are 18” et42 8j
Backs are 18” et45 9j

I think they’re going to be perfect. Probably a bit nice for winter but the price was too rude not to! Image

I totally agree, they look great. However, you need to remember that unless they're load rated, which they need to be, then your insurance is null and void in the event of a claim :roll:

@ celticsmith. I know how you feel mate. I get attached to vehicles too. I shed a tear or two when I realised the end of the road had come with my Audi A8. Now I love my little van though. This forum has helped me improve it, which made me see it as more than ‘just a van’ that it initially was.
